Chapter 927 She is different from us, she was born to do great things
He Liwan, who was watching her daughter learn to walk, was the first to speak out. She raised her finger and pointed it towards her head, saying, "If my daughter-in-law dares to let out a single word, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death, and be reborn as an animal in the next life."
Shen Qingyun glanced at her and said dimly, "This matter really cannot be told to the in-laws, otherwise, with her courage, she will scare herself to death."
He Liwan's pretty face turned red due to her teasing. She called out "Mom" softly and then stopped talking.
Yan Qing frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Sister-in-law, tell me the truth, is there anything else that I don't know?"
Hearing this, Shen Qingyun touched his nose and said dryly: “Qingqing, listen to your sister-in-law’s explanation.”
Realizing that she looked guilty, and that it was more like she was trying to cover up something, she quickly straightened her expression and said, "Sister-in-law, I won't hide it from you. I only found out about this a few years after Dad resigned from his official position, when I happened to hear him mention it to Mom."
Mentioning this, she couldn't help but sigh, "Back then, your brother just left me like that and walked away without even saying a word. How could I not feel resentment or hatred in my heart?
But he sacrificed himself for the greater good of his country and family, and I can neither blame him nor hate him at all."
Thinking of Yan Changfeng wearing silver armor and riding on a tall horse, Shen Qingyun was in a trance for a moment.
But soon, she came to her senses and continued, "After your eldest brother died, I really couldn't accept it. Because I was pregnant with Qinglin and couldn't go to him, I locked myself in the room all day and didn't go out.
One day, I seemed to suddenly hear your eldest brother's voice, calling me to go to the ancestral hall to see him."
At this point, Shen Qingyun couldn't help laughing, "Qingqing, you know your elder brother's temper in the past, he was very shameless.
I thought since he missed me, I might as well go over and see him and talk to him.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I reached the door of the ancestral hall, I heard my parents burning incense for your elder and second brothers and talking about the past.
It was then that I learned that although Dad had long intended to resign, it was Princess Huayang who truly helped him make up his mind.
Yan Changkun couldn't help but ask, "Sister-in-law, didn't Princess Huayang retreat to the backyard to take care of her husband and children after His Majesty ascended the throne?"
"Don't blame me for always calling you stupid." Shen Qingyun looked helpless. Instead of answering, he asked, "That prince consort has no talent, no martial arts, and his appearance is just okay. What does Mo Daiqiu want from him?"
Every man in Beijing has heard about the deeds of the prince consort, and some even talk about it as a topic of conversation after dinner.
Although he married the princess and did not dare to be greedy and think about finding a concubine, his crime was not punishable by death.
I heard that he is now under house arrest in a separate courtyard by Princess Huayang, being tortured day and night, and is in a state of being unable to live or die.
Someone passed by the villa in the middle of the night and was almost frightened to death by the screams coming from inside.
Yan Changkun hurriedly shook his head and asked, "Sister-in-law, are you saying that Princess Huayang has been staying indoors for so many years just to show off to the world?"
Shen Qingyun nodded, “When Dad followed His Majesty, Princess Huayang was not married yet, and she and I were close friends for a while.
Until she earnestly persuaded me to marry her first husband for the sake of the great cause in exchange for food and grass support for their family."
She looked at Yan Qing, who had a grim expression on her face, and said, "Before she came to find me, she had just come out of Dad's tent. Judging from her expression, she must have been rejected.
That’s when I realized she was different from the rest of us and was born to do great things.”
Although the words were a compliment, they were not pleasant to the ear and could even be considered sarcastic.
Even after so many years, Shen Qingyun still looked down on the means that Princess Huayang could sacrifice to achieve her goals.
It's good to be ambitious.
But for the so-called ambition, they even lost their bottom line as human beings, which only shows that they are not people on the same path.
So, over the years, the two people who were once as close as sisters gradually became strangers.
Mo Daiqiu was the high and mighty Princess Huayang.
As for Shen Qingyun, she kept her love for her late husband and lived in seclusion in the Yan family's backyard as Doctor Yan.
The two of them don't interfere with each other.
If Song Yanxi and Mo Jinchuan had not been engaged, the Yan family would have been caught up in the vortex of power again. Shen Qingyun never wanted to see this person again in her life.
Yan Qing murmured, "No wonder, she looked down on Xier from the very beginning."
Shen Qingyun said unhappily: "It's that Mo Daiqiu who is too ambitious and wants to find a niece-in-law for his nephew who is easy to control. What does it have to do with our Xier?
She even looks down on Xier. She's just an aunt, not her biological mother, and she really takes herself too seriously."
Fearing that she would get more angry, He Liwan hurriedly said, "Mother is right. Sister Xier not only inherited aunt's beauty, but also learned excellent medical skills.
With a woman like her, it is a blessing for His Royal Highness Prince Jin to marry her."
Yan Changkun snorted lightly, straightened his back and said, "Qinglin's wife is right. It is obviously the Mo family who married up to our Xier, so why should she be picky?
If you are not satisfied, just cancel this marriage and I will find a better one for our Xier tomorrow."
Lu Peilan couldn't help but pinch him again, "As an uncle, how can you keep talking more and more outrageously?"
She looked at Shen Qingyun and said thoughtfully: "Sister-in-law, Dad has always loved Xier, you will know when he comes back and takes a walk in the palace.
We're just guessing here, not only will we get no results, but we'll also make the children worried."
After hearing this, everyone noticed that Jiaojiao was not the only one with a pouty mouth and red eyes.
Yan Qingsong, who rarely remained silent, clenched his fists, as if he was ready to go to the palace to snatch someone away as soon as his father gave the order.
Looking at Yan Keqing, who was crawling on the ground when the adults were not paying attention, she seemed to be infected by the emotions around her. She supported herself on the ground with her little hands and stared at them motionlessly.
That serious little expression is so cute.
Shen Qingyun hurried over to pick her up, patted the dust off her body and said, "Grandma's sweetheart, how come you ran to the ground in just a moment?"
She caught a glimpse of Jiaojiao staring at her without blinking, and she quickly waved her hand and said, "Come, come here, come to your aunt."
The little girl pouted, turned around and hugged Song Xubai, and said in a muffled voice: "Aunt grandma can't hold you anymore, Jiaojiao wants to go find mother to hold you."
Shen Qingyun and Yan Qing looked at each other and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.
For those who could understand reason, she could still manage to convince them not to act recklessly.
But this is hard to understand, and she might lose some small golden beans if she doesn’t explain it well. What should they do with her?
Yan Qing sighed softly and asked softly, "Jiaojiao, can grandma take you to the backyard to see the koi?"
"No, no." Jiaojiao shook her head like a rattle.
She looked up at Song Xubai, her eyes red as she asked, "Uncle, can you take Jiaojiao to find mother?"
As he spoke, tears started to flow down his face.
Song Xubai was scrambling to wipe it when he heard a powerful question from behind him: "Who made my precious great-granddaughter cry?"
